Authorities say a woman has been hospitalized after crashing her Corvette into a Torrance police car, injuring an officer.

Sgt. Bernard Anderson says it appears Marianne Greco, 42, of Redondo Beach, deliberately struck the cruiser while being chased by another police car Saturday morning. She could face charges of assault with a deadly weapon against a police officer.

Anderson says Greco was trapped in her car and had to be extracted by paramedics. She is hospitalized with serious injuries.

The officer, whose name has not been released, was treated for minor injuries.
